In my own neighborhood of Maryland, we have: Calico Jack Ship's Company Chanteymen Pyrates Royale Calico Jack Letter of Marque and several other groups. The most significant songwriter among those groups would be Jane Meneely, who is in Calico Jack and SCC. She wrote the song "Twiddles," which is performed by maritime groups on both sides of the Atlantic, and continues to write both serious and humorous maritime material.
